NA4: Common conventions from Documentary Posters





After analysing documentary posters I have decided to compare which these 3 famous football documentary posters have in common. They are all individual and have their own style but they all have similarities.

List of common conventions from football documentary:
  • They all feature one main image which features the key focal of the documentary which particularly stands out in their posters.
  • They all have big bold titles that are sans serif of the names of the documentary.
  • The colour schemes of all 3 documentaries connote the teams they are based on. 
Dependant on whether the documentary is released into cinemas or straight onto DVD, they all have different information that can or cannot be advertised as additional information. These include;

  • Release date into cinemas and/or dvd.
  • When they will be broadcasted onto television.
  • What tv station they will be broadcasted onto.
  • Quotes about the documentary from famous people and companies.
  • Who stars in the documentary.
  • What production company produced the documentary.
  • Who directed the documentary.
  • A brief subtitle into the story of the documentary. 
  • Secondary images that help to set the scene of the documentary.
